Detail Review

Pace

+ For a player like Messi, he is surprisingly pretty rapid. His accelaration is explosive and his sprint speed is enough to get away from most defenders.(9.3/10)

Passing

+ Messi is a superb play maker. With the aforementioned trait, many players are attacking when he is on the ball and this helps a lot in building attacks. His through balls are fairly weighted and his vision helps him create many goals. A must-have for pass-heavy playstyles.(9.5/10)

Shooting

+ He is a clinical finisher in front of goal. His finesse shots are excellent and his power shots are deadly. Driven shots are good as well and with 5 star weak foot, he can shoot from a variety of angles.(9.4/10)

Dribbling

+ The best aspect of this card. Messi feels light on the joystick and is good for dribbling with it. His superb agility coupled with 4 star skill moves, give him superb skill stun.(9.9/10)

Positioning and Stamina

+ With high/low, he is perfect for an attacker and is mostly found in the final third. His 4.5 star stamina will suffice unless you abuse him. (9.2/10)

Overall Rating: 9.5/10

Final Verdict

Messi is a superb diminutive forward with excellent attacking attributes and is superb for any team. Though he is behind in terms of OVR, he makes a superb player and a must-have if possible.
